FOREWORD BY SPENCER STUART

First of all, let us extend our heartfelt congratulations to the 22 Diversity List candidates and the 5 Community Connectors candidates. You are the reason we are here, and you are the reason this initiative has been so worthwhile and inspiring.

Our congratulations also go to the 5 candidates from last year’s List who have been appointed to government advisory committees. This is a strong indication that The Zubin Foundation has played a great role in supporting the contribution capable and committed members from our diverse communities are able to make to the future of Hong Kong, and that the Hong Kong government has embraced this with open arms.

We are pleased to partner with The Zubin Foundation for a second consecutive year on this initiative. We have provided advice and conducted assessment on the shortlisting, interviewing and selection of the candidates utilising our capabilities in leadership consulting and talent development. We have also partnered in this programme with the unwavering belief that all the sectors in Hong Kong, including us as a corporate citizen, have a role and a duty to the success and vitality of our city.

Many congratulations again to The Zubin Foundation, and we look forward to working with you in future years.

Alice Au Board Director, Spencer Stuart
